Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes
- 6 cups fresh spinach
- 1 medium onion
- 3 garlic cloves
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Instructions
Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Set aside.
Rinse the spinach thoroughly and set aside.
Chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
Add the diced potatoes to the pot and pour in the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the potatoes cook for about 15 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
Add the spinach to the pot and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until it wilts.
Use an immersion blender to purée the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a countertop blender and blend until smooth.
Return the soup to the pot if using a countertop blender. Stir in the heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg.
Simmer the soup for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with a drizzle of olive oil or a dollop of cream, as desired. Enjoy!
